Plectranthus barbatus, or more commonly known as Coleus forskohlii and Indian Coleus (other synonyms: C. barbatus Benth., Plectranthus forskohlii Willd., and P. comosus Willemse), , a member of the mint family, is a tropical perennial plant related to the typical coleus species. This species is a perennial herb with fleshy, fibrous roots that grows wild in the warm subtropical temperate areas in India, Burma, Thailand, and South-West China (Yunnan Province). In India, it is cultivated for use as a condiment. Coleus forskohlii is an important traditional Ayurvedic herb that has been a part of Indian medicine for centuries. For centuries, in Ayurvedic medicine, Coleus species have been used to treat various diseases such as hypothyroidism, heart disease, respiratory disorders (asthma), convulsions, spasmodic pain and painful urination.
In recent years, Coleus forskohlii has gained recognition as the only known plant source of the diterpene, forskohlin (Forlean as its patented name), and it is interesting from a scientific and medicinal standpoint because it produces forskolin. In the 1970s researchers isolated a unique chemically active extract from the Coleus forskohlii roots and called it forskolin, which is a labdane diterpene. In addition to forskolin, this herb has labdane diterpene glycosides forskoditerpenosides A, B, C, D, and E. Additional compounds include 14-deoxycoleon U, coleonol, alpha-amyrin, demethylcryptojaponol, betulic acid, alpha-cedrol and beta-sitosterol. Now available in supplement form, coleus forskohlii extract has been tested in a number of conditions.
